Try: Too Faced Pro-Essential Teddy Bear Hair Brush Set, $65
Even among the best makeup brush sets, it really doesn't get much cuter than Too Faced's pastel pink-handled brushes and the gold and accompanying pink heart-embossed zippered pouch (bedecked with an adorable teddy bear charm, of course). Even better? They're as soft as their "teddy bear hair" moniker would imply, and since they're not made with real animal hair, you can feel good about going cruelty-free.
